The ghazal

From whose house this joyous light brightens my heart?

Whose lover has sent my soul this cupid's burning dart?

This state wrecks my house and my faith

Whose bosom enfolds her & whose fingers her hair part?

The nectar of her lips always remains upon my lips

Whose soul will comfort & for whom pour a wine quart?

That candle who radiates riches and joy

Ask God, whose moth flight tonight shall thwart?

Mesmerizes everyone, while none can know

To whose tale her gentle heart will wake and smart?

O God, that supremely gentle and graceful face

Whose rare jewel is tonight and whose irreplaceable art?

I sighed, O Hafiz, that I'm crazy when apart

Smilingly you said who is the mad one from the start?
